 There is a house in New Orleans, 
 they call the Rising Sun, 
 and it's been the ruin of many a poor boy, 
 and God, I know, I'm one. 
 
 My mother was a tailor, 
 sewed my new blue jeans, 
 my father was a gambling man, 
 down in New Orleans. 
 
 Now the only thing a gambler needs, 
 is a suitcase and a trunk 
 and the only time, he'll be satisfied, is when 
 he's on a drunk. 
 
 Oh mother, tell your children, 
 Not to do what I have done 
 Spend your lives in sin and misery, 
 In the House of the Rising Sun
 
 Well, I got one foot on the platform, 
 The other foot on the train, 
 I'm going back to New Orleans, 
 To wear that ball and chain. 
 
 Well, there is a house in New Orleans, 
 They call the Rising Sun
 And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy, 
 And God, I know, I'm one. 
There is a house in New Orleans,
they call the Rising Sun,
and it' s been the ruin of many a poor boy,
and God, I know, I' m one.
My mother was a tailor,
sewed my new blue jeans,
my father was a gambling man,
down in New Orleans.
Now the only thing a gambler needs,
is a suitcase and a trunk
and the only time, he' ll be satisfied, is when
he' s on a drunk.
Oh mother, tell your children,
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery,
In the House of the Rising Sun
Well, I got one foot on the platform,
The other foot on the train,
I' m going back to New Orleans,
To wear that ball and chain.
Well, there is a house in New Orleans,
They call the Rising Sun
And it' s been the ruin of many a poor boy,
And God, I know, I' m one.
There is a house in New Orleans,
they call the Rising Sun,
and it' s been the ruin of many a poor boy,
and God, I know, I' m one.
My mother was a tailor,
sewed my new blue jeans,
my father was a gambling man,
down in New Orleans.
Now the only thing a gambler needs,
is a suitcase and a trunk
and the only time, he' ll be satisfied, is when
he' s on a drunk.
Oh mother, tell your children,
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery,
In the House of the Rising Sun
Well, I got one foot on the platform,
The other foot on the train,
I' m going back to New Orleans,
To wear that ball and chain.
Well, there is a house in New Orleans,
They call the Rising Sun
And it' s been the ruin of many a poor boy,
And God, I know, I' m one.
